I have to deactivate acpi because of the network card my modules get
only recognized when acpi is off. I took instead of acpi apm this
doesn't work either. The network card works but apm does not work right.
I didn't thought that i really need acpi but when a laptop requires
this... I think that the processor gets to warm that could be on all
this long compiling sessions. i will try suse 9.3 on my laptop because
the support is much better and try gentoo on a destop computer this will
be much easier for me.
